empty. they can't hire enough highly skilled workers so they have to look overseas. critics, though, point out, in general, these foreign workers tend to be paid less and that may be a motivation as well as far as why the companies want these visas so badly. >> very interesting. thank you, scott. new this morning, investigators looking into what caused a fire that burned through an apartment in sunnyvale. crews say when they got to that scene, they found flames throughout one of those apartments and was starting to spread up to the attic. firefighters say it took them about a half hour to finally get things under control. they were able to keep the fire from spreading to other units. the people that lived in that apartment an ariva drive were not home at the time. >> apparently, they had to take their dog to the veterinarian. we don't know if that is a result of the fire or something else that caused them to leave a pot on the stove or something like that. >> just to be safe, crews did
